Fort Worth, TX – If you are getting rid of your old cell phone, keep in mind that it may contain personal information that others can access. Before disposing of the phone, you will want to remove your personal information. Remove the memory or subscriber identity module (SIM) card from the phone. You can command a cell phone to delete certain data, but this only deletes the location references of the data, not the actual data itself. For additional information on how to delete data permanently, consult your owner’s manual or the websites of the cell-phone manufacturer or your wireless provider.
